Here at SLU, we’re committed to diversity, equity and inclusion as values rooted in
Ignatian spirituality. Because of this commitment, our students aspire to build communities
that are unburdened by discrimination and oppression while advancing the Ignatian
concepts of educating the whole person, and forming men and women for and with others.

Faith fuels our commitment to diversity, social justice and solidarity with the St.
Louis community.

In our more recent history, student and community activists held a demonstration on
campus to protest racial injustices locally and nationally. The 2014 protest ended
peacefully with the Clock Tower Accords, a 13-point agreement that aligns with our mission and will further our goal to become
a national model for diversity and community engagement.
